Her relief was imminent and freeing. It'd been frightening to think about asking what she has, let alone the doing to get to where she could ask. She sees now how worth the fear it'd been to take this chance on someone who clearly was a Prince among Princes.

Not that she's met any, but Sakura's relatively certain that not all Princes would act as he has. "Yes, my Lord." She's unsure about the proper form of address (yet again). "I hope it won't be for long. Ino tells me this is only happening right now, and I should be the right age again before too long. I'm not supposed to worry," she confesses, offering him a very shy smile. "I'll do my best so you don't have to be burdened by this for long."

It's one way of trying to let him know he doesn't need to worry either. Ino said it would be okay. Sakura's not so naive to believe it's that simple, but Ino hadn't felt like she was lying. Sakura's more inclined to trust her gut instinct on that level, when it comes to her first true friend.
